Fair enough. I like your last post Asta.

Yeah this wasn't directed at you, I kinda started ranting there. At that point in the post it was more of an understood you, and there are plenty of people who stated they think that to eliminate camping we should lengthen the variance, which frustrates and infuriates me because it is such an ignorant opinion.

Opinions on switching to a flat +variance rather than a +/-?
I like a flat +6 sure. In fact, I think most raiding guilds would prefer to know exactly when something is coming up. Not to mention its more classic.

What I wonder is would you guys consider showing up 30 minutes to an hour before the boss is due camping or not? If so, then you will never see an end to camping until there is more content. There is no way to prevent these guilds from being there when they think/know a boss is gonna spawn. The ONLY way is a rotation, and I can guarantee you, it won't happen - just takes 1 guild/raid to ignore it and it's over.

Because of that, I believe the only way to move forward is to make a solution that incorporates the fact that guilds WILL be waiting for these bosses to pop, but doesn't give the first force there priority.
